Product Profile
The SPL 95, and the SPL 125 are heavy-duty laminators designed for daily office or commercial use. In addition to processing standard pouches of every thickness, SPL laminators take standard mounting boards for durable point-of-sale displays. To give professional users the precision they need, all SPL

Because SPL laminators are designed to take mounting board, the entry is wide enough to accommodate pouches containing paper much thicker than the 300 gram (80 lbs) maximum recommended above. While filling the pouch to the limits of the entry will not damage your machine, you may not be satisfied with the quality of the results.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
As with any electrical equipment:
- Keep it away from heat or water sources
- Plug it in near an easily accessible outlet
- Do not use it if damaged in any way
- Do not attempt to open or otherwise repair it
- Turn it off after each use, and
- Unplug it when not in use for an extended period.
Set-up
Using the illustration on the inside of the manual cover as a reference, attach the support tray ① to the back of the machine with the two screws included in the package
Operation
To begin laminating, plug in the machine and press the power button ②. On the control panel ③, then press start which will cause the orange standby light to go on.
Hot Lamination
Using the guidelines ④ printed on the top of the machine:
- Set temperature by pressing switch will cause the temperature light to go on. The digital temperature display Ⓐ will show 110°C if this is the first use, but otherwise will show the last temperature used. Press plus + or minus - until you see the temperature you want. Note: Because even standard paper may vary in weight and some inks are heat sensitive, you may have to use a somewhat higher or lower temperature - roughly 5° more or less - to get optimum results.
- Set speed by pressing a second time, which will cause the speed light to go on. The digital speed display Ⓗ will show "4" if this is the first use, but otherwise will show the last speed used. Press plus br minus until you see the speed you want.
Then press forward▲to start the rollers turning. Although the laminator will warm up without the rollers in motion, this ensures that the heat will be evenly distributed. As soon as the selected temperature has been reached, the green ready light ⑥ will go on. Allowing for a free margin of at least 3 mm (1/8 inch), on the unsealed edges, insert the sealed edge of the pouch or mounting board into the entry ⑤, as shown at the right.
If you see the material is not going in straight and might get damaged, use the reverse mode Press stop ■, then press and hold reverse ▼ until you have backed the material out of the entry completely. Realign and press forward ▲ to begin again.

If you are finished with the job, but plan to use the laminator again soon, press start ① put it into the standby mode. If you forget, it will switch itself into this mode after one hour of inactivity. Press start ⑪ again to resume work, or press the power button ② to turn off the machine.
Cold Lamination
Using the same temperature and speed selection procedure as with hot lamination, lower the temperature until the digital display is blank. The cold mode light * will go on at this point to confirm the change in mode. Then select a speed of 5 or 6, depending on the contents and pouch thickness.
Press forward▲ to start the rollers turning. (If the laminator is hot, you can accelerate the cooling process by passing through the cleaning sheet included in the package and/or turning up the roller speed to 7, 8 or 9.) When the green ready light © goes on, turn the speed back to 5 or 6 if necessary, then:
- Lay contents face upon the transparent, non-adhesive side of a specially designed cold lamination pouch, but do not close the pouch
- Insert full length of sealed pouch edge into the entry, as shown, while bending the protective sheet backwards over the machine and grasping its free edge
- Continue holding the protective sheet, which will peel away as the pouch is drawn through the machine.
If you see the pouch is not going in straight and might get damaged, use the reverse mode, as described under Hot Lamination.

To keep your laminator free of adhesives that could hurt the quality of your work, clean the rollers regularly:
- Select temperature 140^ if it is not already on this setting
- Wait for the readiness light and signal, if necessary
- Insert the cleaning sheet included in the package, repeating one or two times
- Insert a plain white sheet of paper to test for remaining traces, and
- Reinsert the cleaning sheet, if necessary, and retest.
To clean the exterior of your machine, wipe with a soft cloth dampened with plain water.
Troubleshooting
If you are not getting the quality you should be, you can probably solve the problem quickly. If, for example, your end product is:
- Cloudy - Reduce the speed and pass it through again. If the sheet is still not completely transparent, increase the temperature in increments of 5^ .
- Wavy - For the next pouch, increase the speed and/or reduce the temperature in increments of 5^ . Passing through the cleaning sheet or turning up the speed will help cool down the rollers. The green ready light © will reappear as soon as the lower temperature has been reached.
- Spotted - Follow the cleaning procedure described under Maintenance to remove traces of adhesive.
- Open on edges- Next time make sure the contents are at least 3 mm (1/8 inch), from the unsealed edges of the pouch.
If the pouch or mounting board is not going in straightor gets stuck in the rollers use the reverse mode, as described under Hot Lamination.
